Plak Mounting 101
Guide to Making Any Art Your Art

All Plak Styles - This popular technique enhances the look of prints by creating an elegant and clean presentation that blends with home and office décor. Bottom border text remains visible, unless you request it to be removed (i.e. text on the bottom such as the title, motivational message, etc).


Your print is mounted onto 3/8" MDF (press wood), then protected by a non-glare laminate. This finish allows the Plak Mount to be cleaned using soap and water or glass cleaner. The edges of the plak are finished in one of ten (10) colours as seen on the Matted tab. The back is slotted so it is ready to hang.

Your print is mounted onto 1/8" masonite, then protected by a non-glare laminate. This finish allows the Flush Mount to be cleaned using soap and water or glass cleaner. A 3/4" box frame is mounted on the back of the masonite flush with the outside edges.

The edges of the Flush Mount are finished in one of ten (10) colours as seen on the Matted tab. The back is slotted so it is ready to hang.

Your print is mounted onto 1/8" masonite, then protected by a non-glare laminate. This finish allows the Float Mount to be cleaned using soap and water or glass cleaner. A 3/4" box frame, smaller than the masonite is centered on the back to give the illusion that the masonite is floating about an inch from the wall.

The edges of the masonite are finished in one of ten (10) colours as seen on the Matted tab. The back is slotted so it is ready to hang.

Your print is mounted onto 3/8" MDF press wood for Plak Mount, 1/8" Masonite for Flush Mount & Float Mount, then protected by a non-glare laminate. This finish allows the mounts to be cleaned using soap and water or glass cleaner.

A 1 1/2" border is placed all around the image in one of 19 different mat colors (default-white), and the egde is colored (default-black).

A 3/16" trim is placed between the image and mat color and is closest to the print color, as selected by our craftspeople. Trim can be ommitted if requested.
